      Will Madden 10 have Mobile Apps on more than iPhone?

      I know there's an iPhone application in the works that will be launched with the released of Madden 10. Now what about the people who don't have iPhones, but have phones of similar capabilities? G1, Blackberry, LG Voyager, etc.

      I have a T-Mobile G1. It uses something called "Android." It's very similar to the iPhone in terms of the functionality, which is why I ask if there will be any chance of the Madden 10 application making its way to other phones?

      Is there a way to I guess 'Port' over an application? I see a lot of similar apps in the Android market that the iPhone has. If the apps hits the Android Market, I will probably never run an offline franchise.

        Even if there's not an app, you very possibly could just access the website in your mobile web browser.

          Not necessarily. It depends on how they set it up. If it's Java or Flash, I wouldn't really be able to access it with full, if any functionality.

          I personally feel they shouldn't favor one company over another, in that sense. There's A LOT of people with a Blackberry, G1, etc. I wouldn't be mad if they didn't make an app for the other carriers, but I would be disappointed.

            I have a BlackBerry myself, but I understand the high popularity of the iPhone and iPod Touch, as well as the ease of the App Store. So, while I would love to see the Online Franchise app come to the BlackBerry, I'm not going to hold my breath. It would take some effort to port the app to every single smart phone, effort I'd rather see spent on developing the actual console game. And therefore, I understand that if they are going to pick only one mobile platform to develop an app for, they would go with Apple for the reasons mentioned before.

              I see what you're saying. And I do agree with you. I feel that if they are NOT going to charge for the application, then they should allow for other tech-savvy people to use the source code so they can port it over.

              That's why in my OP, I mentioned that I've seen very similar apps in the Android market that have also been on the iPhone/ipod Touch market. I assume that port isn't as difficult.

              Not trying to be nitpicky, really. Just hoping for the best, I suppose.

                  I just bought a iphone 3g last month which is the best phone ever but i don't think that they would do the apps with other smart phones b/c they probably have a exclusive deal with Apple but i hope they make apps for other phones so everyone will get the full effect of online franchise

                    Nothing stops them BUT all members of the online franchise can see that the game was restarted as the system logs it and shows it at main screen of online franchise. So the player that did it must let the league know why he re-started.

                      Re: Madden NFL 10 Online Franchise Confirmed

                      I think they should have the rich iPhone/iPod Touch Application, a flash based website (for PCs), and a mobile 'web app' that runs off HTML, that can be used on ALL mobile devices (much like Facebook).

                      I myself have an iPod Touch, but obviously I can only use this in the vicinity of my home (where I could use my PC or my console), but I also have a Nokia 5800 as my phone (Nokia's iPhone). If Madden 10 was to have an HTML web app, I could edit my franchise anywhere.

                      This would ensure that everyone can use their devices to update their franchise, wherever they are.

                        You have to get salary cap in Online Franchise

                        This kills the OF. Everyone will be able to sign any player they want and stack thier teams and never get penalties for cutting. It will be a joke, and contracts will be useless. This is unacceptable and has to be fixed before release. What were they thinking with this

                          I am sure the league commish can set some ground rules.

                            I agree..

                            No salary cap would present alot of problems as far as keeping teams balanced.

                            It also kills alot of strategy in trading, releasing, signing and free agent negotiations......

                              I wonder why it was left out... seems very strange. Salary cap and franchise go hand in hand.

                                I have to admit, I'm baffled with this too. Isn't that the whole point? That's what prevents people from just building a pro bowl roster. Although, the fact that the other teams all have to draft as well eases this a lot too. You won't be able to just stack your team because 31 other teams are drafting players. However, it does take away from cuts and other such moves.
